Winter is often a dull time for many rodders around the country. It’s too cold to drive roadsters and convertibles comfortably. The local road departments have bathed the streets in more salt than washes in with the tide everyday, raising concerns of rust on our precious rides. Then there’s the snow, the ice, and the cold, cold rain. So often our rides are mothballed, stuck in the garage until spring makes it’s appearance and we open the doors to the man cave, dust off the cob webs and head out to see all those friends who were also hunkered down during the most frigid months of the year.
Of course, you could get your car out of the garage and make it to an indoor car show. If you’re a Factory Five customer why not sweeten that deal and join up with your car’s creators at one of the Autorama/World of Wheels shows around the country. These shows give all of who put our cars in hibernation for the winter months an excuse to get out to a great car show, without enduring too much of the cold weather. Featuring some of the coolest rods, customs, and other rides in the country, the Autorama/World of Wheels shows are a worthwhile experience no matter what your taste is.
This year Factory Five will be making it to ten Autorama events with their Coyote powered ’33 Hot Rod that they showed off recently and debuted at this year’s SEMA show. FFR has reserved two additional spots at their display at all of the Autorama events to allow for two lucky customers to display their cars at no charge. Obviously these are on a first come first serve basis so you’ll need to hurry up and contact Sally Bean at Factory Five to make sure you get your spot reserved. For those not wanting to display their cars, FFR also has available some visitor passes as well, if you just want to attend the show.
So if you’re an FFR customer why not get off the couch and get your car to a show. Rub elbows with the guys from Factory Five and show off your car at one of the biggest indoor car show tours in the country for the weekend. Come on, there’s nothing good on TV anymore anyway, so what’s your excuse? These spots will go fast, so reserve yours quickly.
